Introduction
This module covers the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values needed to apply quality standards
in the workplace. The unit also includes the application of relevant safety procedures and regulations,
organization procedures and customer requirements.
MEMORY
The CPU accesses memory according to a distinct hierarchy. Whether it comes from permanent
storage (the hard drive) or input (the keyboard), most data go in random access memory (RAM) first.
The CPU then stores pieces of data it will need to access, often in a cache, and maintains certain special
instructions in the register.
Read-only memory (ROM) chips are located in the motherboard. ROM chips contain instructions that
can be directly accessed by the CPU. Basic instructions for booting the computer and loading the
operating system are stored in ROM. ROM chips retain their contents even when the computer is
powered down. The contents cannot be erased or changed by normal means.
Random access memory (RAM) is the temporary storage for data and programs that are being
accessed by the CPU. RAM is volatile memory, which means that the contents are erased when the
computer is powered off.
Early computers had RAM installed in the motherboard as individual chips. The individual memory chip,
called dual inline package (DIP) chips, was difficult to install and often became loose on the
motherboard. To solve this problem, designers soldered the memory chips on a special circuit board
called a memory module.
SIMMs have 30-pin and 72-pin configurations. DIMM is a circuit board that holds SDRAM, DDR
SDRAM and DDR2 SDRAM.
The speed of memory has a direct impact on how much data a processor can process because
faster memory improves the performance of the processor. As processor speed increases, memory
speed must also increase. For example, single-channel memory is capable of transferring data at 64
bits. Dual-channel memory increases speed by using a second channel of memory, creating a data
transfer rate of 128 bits.
Double Data Rate (DDR) technology doubles the maximum bandwidth of SDRAM. DDR2 offers
faster performance while using less energy. DDR3 operates at even higher speeds than DDR2;
however, none of these DDR technologies are backward- or forward compatible.
Even with a wide and fast bus, it still takes longer for data to get from the memory card to the
CPU than it takes for the CPU to actually process the data. Caches are designed to alleviate this
bottleneck by making the data used most often by the CPU instantly available.
Registers are memory cells built right into the CPU that contain specific data needed by the CPU,
particularly the Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU). An integral part of the CPU itself, they are controlled
directly by the compiler that sends information for the CPU to process.
STORAGE DRIVES
Storage drives read or write information on magnetic or optical storage media. The drive can be
used to store data permanently or to retrieve information from a media disk. Storage drives can be
installed inside the computer case, such as a hard drive. For portability, some storage drives can
connect to the computer using a USB port, a FireWire port, or an SCSI port. These portable storage
drives are sometimes referred to as removable drives and can be used on multiple computers. Here are
some common types of storage drives: Floppy drive, Hard drive, Optical drive and Flash drive.
Floppy Drive
A floppy drive, or floppy disk drive, is a storage device that uses removable 3.5-
inch floppy disks. These magnetic floppy disks can
store 720 KB or1.44 MB of data. In a computer,
the floppy drive is usually configured as the A:
drive. The floppy drive can be used to boot the
computer if it contains a bootable floppy disk. A
5.25-inch floppy drive is older technology and is seldom used.
Hard Drive
A hard drive, or hard disk drive, is a magnetic storage device that is
installed inside the computer. The hard drive is used as permanent
storage for data. In a Windows computer, the hard drive is usually
configured as the C: drive and contains the operating system and
applications. The hard drive is often configured as the first drive in the
boot sequence. The storage capacity of a hard drive is measured in
billions of bytes, or gigabytes (GB). The speed of a hard drive is
measured in revolutions per minute (RPM).
Multiple hard drives can be added to increase storage capacity. Traditional hard drives are magnetic.
Magnetic hard drives have dri…ve motors designed to spin magnetic platters and the drive heads. In
contrast, the newer solid state drives (SSDs) do not have moving parts. Because there are no drive
motors and moving parts, the SSD uses far less energy than the magnetic hard drive. Non-volatile flash
memory chips manage all storage on an SSD, which results in faster access to data, higher reliability,
and reduced power usage. SSDs have the same form factor as magnetic hard drives and use ATA or
SATA interfaces. SSDs can be installed as a replacement for magnetic drives.
Optical Drive
An optical drive is a storage device that uses lasers to read data on the
optical media. There are three types of optical drives: Compact Disc (CD),
Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) and Blue-ray Disc (BD).CD, DVD, and BD
media can be pre-recorded (read-only), recordable (write once), or
rewritable(read and write multiple times).

answer. Answers may be more than one word. Write your answers on a separate sheet of paper.
1. __________ is one of the most common tasks for design engineering. The ability to assess the
material’s impact on the performance of a product is crucial for reliable performance.
2. The __________ properties are widely understood to be the key to obtaining data for a project,

3. The __________ is also considered when buying or selecting materials for a specific project.
4. When merchandise is received which is incomplete or defective, the supervisor will _________
the materials to the supplier or to the store where it was bought and make arrangements with the
vendor for replacement.
5. All materials received must be listed and be __________ to monitor how many materials are
already on hand, purchased or damaged.
